  1. I reassert my statement about Armenian women--- They're beautiful! Gamo i hadn't heard of that site, armenianbridge.com. Thanks!
  2. Surprisingly not too large. Only 200 or so families, I believe. But it is about quality, not quantity.
  3. By all means, visit Houston. Gamavor, Zartonk, and I will show you around our city. There aren't any single great must-see sights, but it is an overall world class city. We've got some of the best restaurants (you hear that Sip) and great cultural centers. We have an Armenian church too (www.saintkevork.org). We'd love your company!
  4. I am that guy... ...just kidding

    Hmm maybe they do. Here's an interesting fact: dolphins are the only other animals that have sex for pleasure. The other of course being humans. It's known that animals are attracted to the opposite sex instinctively. For example, men are attracted to the hourglass figure because our insticts tell us that means fertility ;-)

    Turks

    Untrue! Where do they get this connection? The Turks are of Mongolian descent. Even the word "Turk" was originally used as the name for a faction of Mongolians. Although it is true that Ottoman Turks have a lot of Armenian--the real descendants of Togarmah (partly)-- and Greek blood, it is incorrect to say that Togarmah is the ancestor of all Turkish tribes. Its around the middle of the page-- a little below. "God's Covenant People" Zionist Webpage

    Guess This Movie!

    its obviously American History X. Great movie--its in my collection.
  9. The issue is not about it being special. It's about Turkey fessing up to her crimes and making reparations. The difference is the Germans confessed, met their punishments, and made reparations. They did not deny, deny, deny for decades. Turkey needs the to get the nerve to face up to her history.

    Buddha

    If you analyze the way Genesis was written, you'd see that Moses wrote it in a way so as to be taken literally. For example, he tells the story of creation by saying that there was plant life before there was a sun. This is obviously impossible. It was not meant to document creation scientifically Just because people back then did not have the science does not make them ignoramuses.
  12. Amen to that! The most beautiful among Armenians are perhaps more beautiful than those among any other nation

    Rule of thumb: you can not realize the essence of Christianity by observing the actions of the administrators of the Church. It's all politics. Every choice they make is influenced by politics. Who is elected into office is influenced by politics. All legislation made by church officials are products of politics. A seat as powerful as the papacy once was is especially influenced by politics. Who do you think the kings of Western Europe were pawns of? The Pope. Do you think buying the forgiveness of your sins is ethical? No. You know what causes it? Money. And what does money go hand in hand with? Politics. It's all about power.

    Armenian Food

    Really? It takes 6 hours? Well, maybe restaurants have different resources that allow them to cook it faster-- or maybe not. If it takes 6 hours, I dunno how they do it. Or maybe they cook it a different way. There's no impressive presentation or anything; all there is on the plate is cooked brain, eyes, and tongue on bits of beef with its stew. I haven't had proper xash before, so I couldn't tell you the difference.
  16. Sip, you've just won yourself the "Anshnork Post of the Day" award. Bravo

    Get your priorities straight yeghpayr. A xashfest is worth a 4-hour drive
  18. You're right about Germany. As of now, that is. Angela Merkel, the leader of the Christian Democratic Union, is favored to be elected as chancellor. She is for the recognition of the Genocide, while her opponent is against it. It's lucky for us that she's going to be elected. Armenie Armenie Uber Alles! Yev Getseh Deutschland!
  19. There are more countries in Europe than just France that speak about the recognition of the Genocide. Take Switzerland for example.

    It's very popular among the Persians too. There's a restaurant down here that serves it on Sundays-- Darband. It runs out in a couple of hours. I think xash and kale ***** are the same thing-- there may be some minor differences, but thats to be expected because of the different cuisine of the regions.

    Xash is great! It's poem-worthy.
